1/ As I jealously watched Puerto Ricans passionately demand that their corrupt Governor step down, I wondered, “Where is our threshold of intolerance for our President’s behavior marked?"

2/ Precisely what line does Donald J. Trump need to cross, that is so monstrous, that It becomes the catalyst for the fire in our patriotic hearts to take to the streets to protest and demand that he too should step down?

3/ This idea of a "final line to be crossed" begs the question, “Which of the following actions taken by our president wasn’t quite awful enough to force thousands of flag waving Americans into the streets to demand a leader of better character?”

4/ * when, like a common dictator, he told his 2016 campaign opponent that if he was elected, he would have her put in jail?
* When he mimicked and made fun of a man with a disability?
* When he criticized the Gold Star parents of a slain US soldier?

5/ * When he said he could grab women by the pussy?
* When, like a common dictator, he called journalists fake and denigrated them at his rallies?

6/ * When he encouraged violence at his rallies saying, “If you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them, would you? Seriously, OK? Just knock the hell ... I promise you I will pay for the legal fees. I promise, I promise.”

7/ * When he said Mexico would pay for his wall and then demanded that American taxpayers cover the bill?
* When he disparaged other countries as shit-hole countries?
* When he lied for the documented 10,000th time?

8/ * When he said he had a better health care plan than the ACA, said he would reveal that plan, didn’t reveal a plan, and then proceeded to take away health care from millions of Americans anyway?

9/ * When he promised during midterms to protect coverage for people with pre-existing conditions and now his AG is declining to defend the law which will terminate care for millions with pre-existing conditions?

10/ * When we found out he didn’t pay contractors for their completed work and then he sued THEM for demanding that he pay?
* When he banned all Muslims from entering our country?
* When, by court order, his “charity” had to be dissolved?

11/ * When he paid hush money to a porn star?
* When he violated campaign finance law and wrote a check (while sitting in the White House) to cover up his affair with said porn star?

12/ * When he accepted campaign help from Russia?
* When he hired campaign managers and advisers that made deals with Russia?

13/ * When he told McGahn to fire Mueller or any of these other 9 obstructions of justice google.com/amp/s/www.cbsn…

14/ * When he said he would release his tax returns, lied about why he said he couldn’t release them, and is now suing to make sure they can never be released?

15/ * When his campaign adviser gave polling data to a Russian operative?
* When he said he would continue to accept help from a foreign adversary such as Russia in his 2020 campaign?

16/ * When he separated children from their parents?
* When he started holding children and adults at the US border in pens under documented inhumane living conditions?
* When children in the custody of the American border patrol died?

17/ * When he told American congress women of color to go back to their country?
* When he doubled down on his racism the next day?
* When leaders from other countries denounced him for his racism?

18/ When asked if he trusted U.S. intelligence agencies, which concluded that Russia interfered in the 2016 election, he said he had been told by his CIA chief that Russia was to blame, but he (Trump) was not certain?

19/ When, in front of Putin and the world, he said, “I don’t see any reason why it would be” Russia. President Putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today.” This one?

20/ When Russian President Vladimir Putin was asked if he wanted Trump to win the US presidential election or if he directed any officials to help him do that, Putin responded, "Yes, I did." This one?

21/ When questioning Mueller, Adam Schiff stated that if knowingly accepting assistance from a “foreign government during a presidential campaign is an unethical thing to do.”

“And a crime in certain circumstances,” Mueller responded. Was this the line?

22/ Where is the line? We all need to know, because every time any one of us thinks it’s been crossed—nothing happens to force this President to stop. In fact, he has been conditioned by us to keep stepping forward because we allow it.

23/ So I ask (because I fear for our democracy) beyond the above list, exactly what monstrous action must this President take to finally push Americans into the streets to demand that our ALREADY corrupt, misogynistic, racist and abusive President step down?
